- Partner with Tel Cloud, Tel Edge, Calling, and AI teams to design end-to-end call flows and integrations
- Participate in on-call and release rotations, owning Terraform- and GKE-backed rollouts, monitoring health, and driving follow-ups that continuously make the platform safer and easier to operate.

- Comfortable working on KTLO (bugs, refactors, upgrades) as well as strategic roadmap items, and using data to prioritize impact.
- A deep understanding of reliability engineering, including the ability to build observability into services, eliminate performance bottlenecks, and manage the lifecycle of safe software releases.
